LWF delegation advocates for the most vulnerable people
The Lutheran World Federation (LWF) advocates for climate justice with a strong focus on the implementation of the Paris Agreement, which aims to limit global warming to below 1.5 degrees Celsius.
Climate change is a global reality. It is severely affecting the lives and livelihoods of thousands of people in many countries. The full and effective enjoyment of human rights is often adversely affected, with the most vulnerable people and biodiversity facing great risk.
The LWF delegation to the 29th United Nations Conference of the Parties (COP29) comprises church leaders—men, women and youth—from all continents, advocating for the most vulnerable people from a faith perspective. They join efforts with ecumenical and interfaith partners in online and face-to-face meetings.
